Johnny Copeland
27 March 1937, Haynesville, Louisiana, USA, d. 4 July 1997, New York, USA. A former boxer, Johnny Clyde Copeland was active as a guitarist and singer on the Houston blues scene during the late 50s and 60s. While there is no doubt as to Copelands blues credentials, throughout the 60s in particular, he recorded a wide body of genuinely top-drawer soul. Although all of his 60s soul tracks appear to have been recorded in Houston (from the 70s onwards, some were cut in Los Angeles), Copeland was a label-hopper supreme. He made numerous singles for such labels as Mercury Records (All Boy 1958), Paradise, Golden Eagle (Down On Bending Knees) and Crazy Cajun. His version of Bob Dylans Blowin In The Wind was issued by New York-based Wand Records in 1965 and there were later albums for Atlantic Records. The renewed interest in the blues during the 70s brought a recording contract with Rounder...

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

In a lawsuit filed in federal court, Gulfstream Park alleges Tampa Bay Downs is acting in violation of Gulfstream's exclusive contracts in the redistribution of simulcast signals to outlets in Florida.Magna Entertainment-owned Gulfstream maintains exclusivity in redistribution of the signal from certain tracks, including fellow MEC tracks and New York Racing Association tracks. At issue is whether or not Tampa can redistribute those signals within the state."We are simply complying with Florida law," Tampa Bay general manager Peter Berube said.State law requires a signal sent to any one Florida track be available to all tracks. "The state obligates us to make the signal available to all eligible (intertrack wagering) outlets," Berube said.Gulfstream management declined to comment on the suit.Kent Stirling, executive director of the Florida Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association, said the association supports Gulfstream's position. He claims Tampa Bay has gained a foothold in simulcasting by undercutting Gulfstream on price."The only ones benefiting are the dog tracks and jai alai frontons that are now getting a higher percentage of the wagering dollar," Stirling said.As a result, Stirling said, wagering at intertrack wagering sites on Gulfstream-distributed signals is down 35% for the 2003 meet.

"Perfect location on the seafront adjacent to the old town in Budva. Fantastic views from sea view rooms.

Comedian references actor's secret visit with drug lord El Chapo in opening monologue
Golden Globes host Ricky Gervais wasted no time referencing Sean Penn's interview with El Chapo in his opening monologue on Sunday.
The comedian opened the show with a joke about going into hiding where "not even Sean Penn" could find him, before calling the actor a "snitch."
Gervais was referencing Penn's recent Rolling Stone article about his secret trip to Mexico to meet with drug lord Joaquín Guzmán Loera — a.k.a. "El Chapo."

Published on Saturday, the article documented the actor's trip across the border to meet with El Chapo, as arranged by Mexican actress Kate del Castillo. The interview eventually led Mexican officials to the drug lord, allowing them to arrest him six months after his dramatic escape from prison.

5 reviews | 3.6 out of 5
fan SPEEDS DO NOT WORK and
the fan produces NO BREEZE the fan control has bars for the fan speed,
but the fan shuts off if you try to turn it to the
high speed ..so basically, you have low and med.
and the fan produces NO BREEZE downward,
and yes, i have the setting correct. my handyman who installed said it is not
for the novice, as he found it hard to install
and he's done a hundred fan installs.
Love the look of this fan, and it does a great job of cooling. The remote is a plus, as is the dimmer feature on the light. The overall quality is good. One problem I did notice was that the rod did not want to hang perfectly centered from the housing opening. The fan itself is level with no vibration or out of balance blades, but I found the uneven gap noticeable, but I disguised it by putting self sticking round stickers daisy-fashioned around the gap, and it is not at all noticeable now. I like the modern styling, as I am weary of the fans with the three bulbs in chimney shades that hang down so low. I have low ceilings, and this fan hangs about 3 inches higher than the one I replaced. Good buy with free shipping to store.
I wanted this fan forever, after seeing it online, I finally got it then read the reviews, i was worred because of a couple of them, but I got it and had no trouble installing it, you basically put it all together and then hang it up, you dont to hold it up as you screw it in like the "old days"... i have 8 ft. ceilings, and it hangs down a good ft./ ft.1/2... its kinda low, but im 5'8 and the tallest in my family, and its perfect height.... but i would beware of tall households if ceilings are that short...and you have to use the rod, its not a flush mount.... but as long as you read the directions its a pc of cake...and looks awesome...and love the remote and remote holder for the wall.......peace.
Installation instructions could be better, but it works well. Good price, and a good value.

Disclaimer: I don't own Hetalia. I don't think I'd be writing this if I did.
Zephyr here! This is the LAST CHAPTER of SJMRM. As sad as I am to finish this, I'm happy with how it turned out and that its as popular as it is. Thanks to everyone who stuck with me to the end. That being said, this is the conclusion of the deadly tale!
Gilbert woke up when his pet started hopping up and down his back, clearly wanting to wake him up. He didn't want to have to get up on his day off work, but when Gilbird started jumping on him, he knew that there was no way that he'd be falling back asleep.
"What do you want, Gilbird?" Gilbert asked, failing to stifle a yawn.
The yellow bird started chirping loudly as he flitted around the room before landing on Gilbert's laptop.
"You just wanted me awake, didn't you?" Gilbert rolled his eyes. "Okay, fine. I'm awake."
After he got out of bed, Gilbert grabbed a change of clothes and headed for the shower. Once he was finished, he went into the kitchen and found Elizaveta drinking a cup of coffee and reading a copy of the newspaper at the island.
"Hey, you." Gilbert said as he pulled a carton of orange juice from the fridge.
"Same to you." Elizaveta responded with a smile.
"Last night wasn't a dream, was it?" Gilbert asked as he turned to face Elizaveta, juice in hand.
"Nope." Elizaveta leaned up and gave him a quick kiss.
"That's good to know." Gilbert smirked as he grabbed a glass and poured the orange juice. "But if we're going out now, I wonder why that weird feeling hasn't gone away yet."
"That's kinda cute, Gil." Elizaveta said as Gilbird flew into the room and landed on her head.
"I'm not used to it." Gilbert said as he stuck the carton back in the fridge.
"We can always call it off if that would make you feel better." Elizaveta said
"Why would I do that?" Gilbert arched an eyebrow. "I've been waiting to go out with you for months."
"Yeah, I didn't think you'd want to give that up." Elizaveta said as she lifted Gilbird from her head and held him in the palm of her hand. "Do you think Gilbird approves? He's finally starting to accept me as a person."
"We'll have to see." Gilbert said, leaning down so that he was eye-level with the yellow bird. "Gilbird? Ellie and I are going out now. I'll be doing all the things that I used to do with Maria with her from now on. Is that okay with you?"
Gilbird looked from Gilbert to Elizaveta a few times. Gilbert could tell that his pet was mulling over the idea of him dating his roommate, but for once in the entire time that he had owned his pet, Gilbert couldn't tell what the yellow bird was thinking.
A few seconds later, Gilbird fixed his eyes on Gilbert, as if he was trying to read his mind. After staring at him for a while, Gilbird seemed to nod and he chirped once.
"Well, I'm glad you approve." Gilbert rolled his eyes at the bird's antics.
"I still think it's odd that I need the approval of a bird before I can date you." Elizaveta gestured to Gilbird.
"For whatever reason, Gilbird's always been very protective over me." Gilbert said as he sat down next to Elizaveta.
"So I see." Elizaveta nodded. "But he didn't do this when you were dating Maria?"
"Nope." Gilbert shook his head. "I don't know why, but he's always been a little touchy when it comes to you."
"It's a good thing that he's getting over that." Elizaveta said, reaching over to pat Gilbird on the head.
"It was a real problem before this." Gilbert noted. "Seriously. It felt like we were married and it was the problem of getting the pet to get along with the spouse."
"I didn't want to say it at the time, but that's sort of how it felt." Elizaveta added, finishing her coffee. "And now for a random change of subject. What were you planning on doing today?"
"Antonio and Francis are coming over sometime this afternoon." Gilbert told her.
"Just make sure that Francis doesn't act creepier than normal." Elizaveta said. "I know you can't completely stop him, but I'd appreciate it if he'd learn to stop staring at my boobs all the time."
"That's impossible, considering that it's Francis, but I'll try." Gilbert assured her. "When do you get off work?"
"Around four." Elizaveta said. "I hope it'll be an easy day today."
"It seems like there's a lot of drama involved with bookstores." Gilbert said. "And I thought I had it bad working in a music shop."
"There's more drama than one would expect." Elizaveta said with a sigh." And on that note, I suppose I should start getting ready."
"Nope." Gilbert reached over and wrapped his arms around her waist. "You're not allowed to leave."
"Then I won't be able to make money to pay rent, which means that I'll have to move out." Elizaveta said. "I don't think you'd want that to happen."
"Not really, no." Gilbert shook his head.
"Tomorrow's Sunday and we both have the day off." Elizaveta told him. "We can spend the day together if you want."
"I'd like that." Gilbert nodded.
"You should probably get ready for the rapist and Antonio." Elizaveta said.
"You know Francis hates being called that." Gilbert said, releasing Elizaveta from his grip.
"But it's true, you know." Elizaveta said, giving Gilbert a quick kiss before she slid off the stool and left the kitchen.
"So, Gilbert, have you made any progress with Elizaveta?"
Gilbert looked up from his phone and found Francis and Antonio watching him. They had planned on playing video games, but they couldn't decide what game they would play. After Francis and Gilbert argued for half an hour between "Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood" and "Left 4 Dead 2", Antonio suggested that they simply watched TV, with him being the decider on the show.
"Yeah, I actually have." Gilbert nodded, petting Gilbird on the head as the yellow bird sat on his knee.
"Oh really?" Francis arched an eyebrow at his friend.
"What did you do, mi amigo?" Antonio asked.
"I asked her out." Gilbert grinned happily.
"Nice one!" Antonio exclaimed. "I knew you'd do it eventually."
"But she's going out with Roderich, mon cher." Francis told him. "She can't go out with you."
"Apparently she broke up with him a few days ago." Gilbert drummed his fingers on the empty beer can sitting next to him. "And I don't know how this happened, but apparently she likes me, too."
"I knew that she would." Antonio said. "I saw how she looked at you."
"Kind adorable, too." Francis said.
"You already have Arthur, Francis." Gilbert said. "No hitting on my girlfriend."
"So it's official, then?" Antonio asked, running his fingers through his hair.
"Ja." Gilbert responded in German.
"Good for you." Francis told him. "Now you won't be so emo anymore."
"I wasn't that bad." Gilbert chucked an empty beer can at Francis' head.
"How's Gilbird handling this?" Antonio asked, his eyes on the yellow bird on Gilbert's knee. "He used to hate her when you were still roommates."
"We're not roommates now?" Gilbert frowned.
"You know what I mean." Antonio sighed in exasperation.
"He's okay with it." Gilbert responded. "The only reason why he hated her was because he thought that she was going to replace him. Once I told him that she'd never take his place, he started to warm up to her a little."
"He's just as stubborn as you are." Francis said, picking up the remote and flipping through the channels randomly.
"He really likes her now." Gilbert said. "I saw him trying to turn the pages of her book while she was reading the other day."
"It's just like a married couple with pets." Francis said.
"That's what Ellie and I said." Gilbert nodded.
"Now we just need Antonio to ask out Romano and we'll all have partners." Francis said, blue eyes falling on Antonio.
"You already know that's not going to work out." Antonio said. "Romano's never going to go for it."
"You won't know if you don't ask him, Antonio." Gilbert told him.
"Where's Elizaveta, anyway?" Antonio was clearly trying to change the subject.
"She's at work right now." Gilbert brushed his hair from his eyes. "She should be getting back soon."
"We'll have to interrogate her." Francis grinned deviously.
"Why the fuck would you do that?" Gilbert demanded, though he should have known that his friends would try to do such a thing.
"To make sure that she isn't just using you for sex." Francis explained like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"She's not you, Francis." Antonio shot a glare in the direction of the blonde. "Elizaveta wouldn't do something like that. And I don't think Gilbert would go out with her if she was like that."
"I have more sense than that." Gilbert said.
"What am I not doing?"
The boys turned around and found Elizaveta standing behind the couch her eyes moving between Francis and Antonio.
"You aren't going out with me for the sex." Gilbert explained.
"Oh yeah, because we had so much sex last night." Elizaveta laughed.
"Was that sarcastic?" Francis asked, eyes on Elizaveta.
"Of course." Gilbert rolled his eyes as Elizaveta sat down next to him on the couch.
"He didn't force you into this, did he?" Francis asked seriously.
"Why would he force me into this?" Elizaveta frowned.
"Gilbert can be somewhat forceful sometimes." Francis said, eyes on Gilbert.
"Don't compare him to you, mi amigo." Antonio said.
"Well, he didn't force me into anything." Elizaveta said. "And I've already broken up with Roderich, so don't even ask about that."
"Yeah, Gilbert told us that already." Antonio said.
"I don't think Francis believes me." Gilbert wrapped his arm around Elizaveta's waist. "That I'm going out with you, that is."
"Well, it's true, Francis." Elizaveta told the blonde.
"It's about time you made a move, Gilbert." Francis said.
"Well, I couldn't exactly do anything when she was going out with Roderich." Gilbert pointed out.
"But you didn't know that I broke up with him when you told me." Elizaveta told him.
"Hey, whose side are you on?" Gilbert questioned, his eyes on Elizaveta.
"Yours, of course." Elizaveta said.
"At any rate, we're happy for you, mi amigo." Antonio said.
"Now we just need to get Antonio to ask out Lovino." Elizaveta said.
"Not you too!" Antonio exclaimed in exasperation.
Elizaveta heard the drum beats while she was still in the shower. Gilbert always had a tendency to play a little too loudly. Not that she minded. She knew that Antonio and Lovino, who lived next door, wouldn't appreciate it, however. She pounded the wall with her first a few times, hoping that Gilbert would hear her over the loud drumming. However, her efforts were in vain, as he kept drumming away and continued to do so when Elizaveta walked out into the living room a few minutes later. He had turned the volume up full blast, so loud that Gilbert couldn't hear the squawking of the yellow bird flying around the room.
Elizaveta knew that shouting wouldn't do anything. She'd lived with him long enough to know that getting Gilbert's attention required drastic measures. She walked across the room and turned the volume down before she turned around and faced Gilbert. He continued drumming for a few seconds before stopping suddenly, frowning at the lack of noise in the apartment. He looked towards the stereo and became even more confused when he saw Elizaveta standing there,
"Something wrong, Ellie?"
"You're being too loud." Elizaveta said as Gilbird landed on her shoulder.
"Was I?" Gilbert stood up and stretched his arms out in front of him.
"I could hear you in the shower." Elizaveta nodded. "You couldn't hear me pounding on the wall?"
"Nein." Gilbert shook his head.
"That figures." Elizaveta sighed. "Is the pizza done yet?"
"You made pizza?" Gilbert frowned.
"Oh, that's right. You were at the store when I put it in the oven." Elizaveta said. "Yeah, I made sausage pizza."
"Well, I clearly didn't hear a timer go off." Gilbert said. "And I don't smell anything burning, so that's a good sign."
"So what were you playing, anyway?" Elizaveta asked.
"Counting Bodies Like Sheep To The Rhythm Of The War Drums." Gilbert responded.
"Bit of a long title." Elizaveta said as she walked over to sit down on the couch.
"But it's a good song." Gilbert said, sprawling out on the other couch.
"Kinda dark, though." Elizaveta said as the timer went off in the kitchen.
"Pizza's done." Gilbert grinned as Elizaveta headed towards the kitchen.
"Ah, crap!" Elizaveta exclaimed.
"What's wrong?" Gilbert asked as he left the room.
"The pizza's burnt." Elizaveta said angrily. "I guess I know why."
"Why?" Gilbert asked, standing behind Elizaveta to star at the pizza sitting on the stove.
"I set the oven temperature a hell of a lot hotter than it was meant to be." Elizaveta said.
"It still looks edible." Gilbert said.
"Do you still want to eat it?" Elizaveta asked.
"I do." Gilbert said. "We don't have to if you don't want to."
"No, we can eat it." Elizaveta said as she started to rummage through a drawer for the pizza cutter.
"I'll grab the beer and plates if you want to cut the pizza." Gilbert said.
"That works." Elizaveta was already cutting the pizza. "You washed the hot mats, right?"
"Ja, ich habe." Gilbert responded in German. "Sorry about that, by the way."
"Don't worry about it." Elizaveta pulled a hot mat from the drawer. "You couldn't have known that the tomato sauce was going to boil over."
"Sounds like we need some cooking classes." Gilbert carried some plates and a six-pack of beer into the living room.
"You're good with deserts." Elizaveta said from the kitchen.
"Ludwig taught me a few things." Gilbert explained, popping the tab on a can of beer.
"Somehow that doesn't surprise me." Elizaveta carried the pizza from the kitchen and placed it on a hot mat on the coffee table. "Was there anything in particular you wanted to watch on TV?"
"Whatever you want works." Gilbert shook his head as he divided the pizza onto plates before handing one to Elizaveta. "I just want to spend some time with you."
"That's sweet." Elizaveta sat down on the couch next to Gilbert.
"Well, we don't get to see each other that much." Gilbert reached for the remote control and started to flip through the channels.
"Which really sucks, huh?" Elizaveta said before taking a bite of pizza.
"I'm not sure what that's meant to mean."
Elizaveta and gilbert turned around and saw Ludwig and Feliciano standing behind them. Ludwig had his eyes fixed on his older brother while Feliciano kept playing with his phone.
"When the fuck did you get here?" Gilbert questioned.
"Pizza!" Feliciano exclaimed happily and made to dash over to grab a slice, but Ludwig grabbed his shoulder and held him back.
"We just wanted to see how things were going." Ludwig said, holding back a flailing Feliciano.
"Are you sure you're right to include Feli?" Gilbert asked.
"Just me, I guess." Ludwig shrugged as he and Feliciano sat down on the opposite couch. "I see you're getting more risky, Gilbert."
"Care to explain, dear brother?" Gilbert knew that Ludwig would pick up on the sarcasm.
"You've got your arm around Elizaveta." Ludwig said, noticing that Gilbert's arm was wrapped around Elizaveta's waist
"Guess we'll have to tell him, Gil." Elizaveta said.
"Tell us what?" Feliciano asked through a mouthful of pizza.
"Ellie and I are going out." Gilbert said.
Ludwig's eyes widened as he said, "Seriously? I thought you were still seeing Roderich, Elizaveta."
"I broke up with him a few days ago." Elizaveta told him.
"Moving on fast, aren't we?" Feliciano asked.
"Feliciano!" Ludwig smacked him upside the head.
"It doesn't matter, Ludwig." Elizaveta said. "I know it looks bad, but Roderich and I called it quits mutually."
"Is that so?" Ludwig mused.
"Yeah, she kissed me first." Gilbert nodded.
"You were never one to take action, Gilbert." Ludwig said.
"Hey, I thought she was still going out with Roderich." Gilbert said before taking a sip of beer. "I wasn't going to do anything like that."
"But I was just giving you my answer." Elizaveta told him.
"Well, at any rate, I'm glad that things worked out for you." Ludwig said. "Now…"
"Oh, no." Gilbert shook his head. "You are not going to lecture me. Not when you didn't do anything when I was with Maria."
"You didn't want to do anything with Maria. You both need to take care of each other, okay?" Ludwig said. "If I find out that you've hurt Elizaveta, Gilbert, I don't know what I'll do, but be prepared to hurt for months. Same goes for you about Gilbert, Elizaveta."
"You know I'm not going to do anything like that, Ludwig." Elizaveta said before taking a bite of pizza.
"I know." Ludwig said. "I just need to say it since Gilbert's my big brother."
"And you shouldn't be saying such things to your big brother." Gilbert said.
"He's been worried about you, Gilbert." Feliciano said.
"Has he now?" Gilbert asked, crimson eyes on Ludwig.
"He said that you were depressed for a while and he didn't know what to do to help." Feliciano explained. "Once he knew that you liked Elizaveta, he wanted to do something to help you out, but nothing he thought of would work."
"Such a caring younger brother." Elizaveta said.
"Hey, Elizaveta's the first girl that you've really wanted to be with." Ludwig said to his brother. "What else was I meant to think?"
"Wait, didn't Maria ever mean anything?" Elizaveta asked.
"I guess she did, at first, but then I realized that I liked you and that she was a complete and total bitch." Gilbert said. "Once I realized that, I kept seeing her as a way to try to get you out of my head."
"That's kinda depressing, Gil." Elizaveta rested her head on his shoulder.
"That should have been indicator that you two would end up together." Ludwig said, leaning back in the couch.
"Why?" Elizaveta frowned in confusion.
"Gilbert doesn't let anyone call him Gil." Feliciano explained. "Not even Ludwig can call him that."
"But you do anyway." Gilbert shot a glare in the direction of his brother.
"Well, I can stop it if you want." Elizaveta said.
"No, it's okay." Gilbert shook his head. "I like the way you say it."
"So by the fact that I'm allowed to use his nickname, we'll work out?" Elizaveta mused.
"Well, maybe not, but it's still a good sign." Ludwig said. "Not that I don't want you two to end up together, of course."
"Well, I have the approval of the bird and the brother." Elizaveta laughed. "I guess I can officially go out with you now, Gil."
"Not that you needed my approval, anyway." Ludwig said. "Speaking of birds, how's Gilbird handling this?"
"He's okay with it." Gilbert responded. "Kinda surprising, actually."
"Where is Gilbird, anyway?" Elizaveta asked Gilbert.
"No idea, now that I think about it." Gilbert said as he stood up from the couch. "He was here when I was drumming earlier."
"We should probably be going." Ludwig stood up as well, pulling Feliciano up with him. "We just wanted to see how things were going over here."
"Aww, but I wanna stay." Feliciano whined.
"Lovino was going to come over today, remember?" Ludwig said as he pulled Feliciano towards the door.
"Yeah, that's right." Feliciano nodded. "He'll be angry if we're not there when he shows up."
"You mean there's a time when he's not angry?" Elizaveta arched an eyebrow.
"You'd better get going, then." Gilbert said. "You know how bad Lovi can be when he's angry."
"We'll see you guys later." Feliciano followed Ludwig out of the apartment, closing the door behind him.
"Now to find Gilbird." Elizaveta said, leaning down to check under the coffee table.
"I'll go check out my room." Gilbert left the living room and made his way to the bedroom.
The yellow bird wasn't on the computer like he normally was, nor was he on top of the iHome. He spent a few minutes looking under the bed and was searching the closet when he heard Elizaveta's voice from her room. Gilbert walked into the hallway and stopped short in front of her door, not looking inside.
"What is it, Ellie?" Gilbert asked.
"You can come in, you know." Elizaveta said.
"You're sure?" Gilbert asked.
"We're roommates, Gil." Elizaveta said. "We're going to see each other's bedrooms at least once."
"I've always thought that girls didn't want boys in their rooms." Gilbert hesitantly turned around and peeked inside the room.
"It's okay, I promise." Elizaveta had to laugh at how shy Gilbert was being.
"You can't yell at me later for this." Gilbert slowly walked into the room. "What's up?"
"I found Gilbird." Elizaveta smiled.
"Really?" Gilbert arched an eyebrow.
"Take a look." Elizaveta gestured towards the bed with a nod.
Gilbert stepped forward and examined the bed. At first, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Elizaveta had neatly folded the orange and purple blankets at the foot of the bed, but what was different was the pillow. Gilbird was nestled on top of the pillow and had fallen asleep, making chirping sounds that resembled snoring.
"I wonder what he's doing in here." Gilbert mused, walking over to the bed.
"Beats me." Elizaveta shrugged.
"Sorry he got in here." Gilbert picked up the yellow bird and held him in the palm of his hand.
"It's okay." Elizaveta assured him. "I think it's kinda cute, actually."
"Time to wake up, Gilbird." Gilbert started poking the bird on the forehead. "What are you doing in here, little guy?"
Gilbird shifted his wings slightly and opened his eyes, staring at Gilbert. He looked around the room and, after finding Elizaveta, chirped twice and flew out of Gilbert's hand, landing on her shoulder.
"Well, hello to you, too." Elizaveta reached up to pet him on the head.
"Now that we've found Gilbird, do you want to continue with our pizza and movie night?" Gilbert asked.
"Sure." Elizaveta nodded as she followed Gilbert back into the living room.
"I'm still surprised that my brother showed up so suddenly." Gilbert said as the yellow bird flew down to sit on his knee.
"He hasn't been over for a while, so I was expecting him to show up soon." Elizaveta said.
"At least he didn't completely freak out about us, though." Gilbert pointed out." I thought he'd have a conniption fit or something."
"He's just watching out for his brother." Elizaveta said, popping the tab on a can of beer.
"I should be the one watching out for him, not the other way around." Gilbert said.
"From what I understand, that's just something that siblings do." Elizaveta said.
"I just hope he doesn't get too protective." Gilbert sighed. "I don't want you to start freaking out over stuff like that."
"You're my boyfriend, Gil." Elizaveta told him. "I should be ready to get used to your brother."
"Yeah, I guess that's true." Gilbert said. "And he's going to have to get used to the fact that you're my girlfriend now."
So that's that! I hope it was a satisfying ending. I have plans for a few more PruHuns oneshots in the making, so look for them in the future. Thanks for reading. Reviews equal love!

Pride beach 370.
(photo credit:Courtesy)
A German tourist, an Arab from Jaffa and an orthodox Jewish man from Jerusalem all walk into a gay bar in Tel Aviv. Sounds like the start of a joke that could go in any number of directions but this is a likely scenario this week in the lead-up to Tel Aviv Gay Pride. During this time, Tel Aviv is awash with pride flags and many of the White City's main streets have come alive with the colors of the rainbow. It's an opportunity for people from all walks of life from around the country, and indeed the world, to come together, be proud of who they are and take the opportunity to talk to those who they may not usually come into contact with.Alongside the flags,Tel Aviv's streets have filled up with thousands of tourists who have flown in specially to the "Manhattan of the Middle East" to enjoy all the events and parties put on in anticipation of the main event, the pride parade, which will take place on Friday.

Trump Ain't Got No Class
For the Trump kids, it may be time for another meeting with dad. A previous one resulted in the canning of Corey Lewandowski and his exiling to CNN. Since then, the plight of the Trump campaign has become even more dire: Donald Trump has fallen in the polls and he made a perfect fool of himself in Scotland, possibly a personal best.

A Contrast in Heroes
My heroes are not necessarily people of great ability but ones who did what I think I could not. Two contemporary men fall into that category. The first is the late Muhammad Ali, maybe the greatest fighter of all time, and the second is John McCain. Now, from the grave, Ali reprimands McCain.

Trump Has Taught Me to Fear My Fellow Americans
What word comes to mind when you see the name Donald Trump? For some people, it might be "anger," since he provokes it and stokes it. For others, it might be "ignorance," since he knows so little and, like many unburdened by knowledge, is untroubled by facts. Some might say "fear," since it would take some scary police tactics to push 11 million...Read more

In the White House, a Dangerous Pride
I've read a fair amount of books on foreign policy in recent years, yet the one that's always made the greatest impression on me was assigned to our class in the sixth grade.

The Sound of Contempt
If Donald Trump looked at a demographic profile of his supporters, he would emit a dismissive sneer. They are disproportionally out of work or not seeking it.

It's good news for Ford's Lincoln division, whose redesigned MKZ has been hampered by production setbacks during its launch. Both the MKZ and MKZ Hybrid were among April's fastest-selling cars, reprising the cars' March appearance — but with a key difference. As we reported on April 2, March's brisk sales pace didn't translate into higher sales, but that changed in April. Lincoln shoppers bought 4,012 MKZs and MKZ Hybrids, up 115.4% versus April 2012. It was the best month in the nameplate's seven-year history, Ford proclaimed.
A few oddball cars often land among the fastest sellers, and April was no exception. The current Scion xB hatchback hit dealerships in May 2007 while Nissan introduced the current Frontier pickup truck at the 2004 Detroit auto show. In car years, the elder Nissan is somewhere between actors Michael Caine and Christopher Plummer — and it hasn't aged as well. But the Frontier and xB spent little time on dealer lots in April, and both have minimal incentives. Go figure.
April's slowest sellers document the continuing sales trickle for two cars: the Acura ILX Hybrid and Chevrolet Malibu Eco. Both variants make up a good chunk of their respective nameplates in Cars.com new-car inventory, but they took 150 and 229 days, respectively, to move. Contrast that with April's 51-day monthly average, which stayed about even with March (48 days) but came in a bit slower than April 2012's 45 days.
Here are March's fastest and slowest sellers:
April Movers
April Losers

About the Lists
The Fastest- and Slowest-Selling Cars list reports the average number of days it takes to sell models from the day they arrive on the lot until the final paperwork is signed by a buyer. This is not a days-of-inventory list like you may find on other websites. We look at 2013 and a handful of 2014s now, calling the fastest sellers Movers and the slowest ones Losers.
For Movers, we only list vehicles that pass a certain threshold of sales in order to weed out limited editions, ultra-high-performance cars and others that might skew the numbers or otherwise inaccurately portray popularity. To highlight all slow sellers, losers have no such threshold.
Our Picks highlight cars that take a significant time before they're sold and might be overlooked by shoppers. Dealers could be more motivated to sell these cars.

Live-Streaming Now: The Marc Jacobs Fall '13 Show Closes NYFW!
Maybe we were tired before, but as of 8 p.m. tonight, we're straight-up, on-the-edge-of-our-seat bubbling over with excitement. Why? It's the Marc Jacobs fall '13 runway show. As always, it's one of the most anticipated shows of the season and probably the best one to make a grand New York Fashion Week exit.
But because the Lexington Avenue Armory can only hold so many people, MJ and team has given every R29 reader a front-row seat without having to hail a cab, plane, train, or bus. Starting at 8 p.m., the entire Marc Jacobs show will be streaming live. Right here. So, keep this window open, grab your Valentine's Day treats, and watch as Marc Jacobs brings the house down with what may be the greatest finale NYFW has ever seen. And, that's a wrap folks!

I Have Lived a Thousand Years: Growing up in the Holocaust (1997)
by Livia Bitton-Jackson
Writers at Risk (38)
Books about World War II (155)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This is an autobiography book because it's narrator is the girl herself, Ellie Friendmann talking about her experience during the Holocaust as a 13 year old girl. She gives very descriptive detail about how quickly her life changed and how much it affected herself and her family. I could use this book to discuss the Holocaust in class and how it has affected history. Another way I could use this is to talk about geography and where Germany is in the world. There is no media in this book.
I wouldn't state that this was one of my favorite books that I have read recently about the Holocaust, but I would state it is the one that was able to draw out some emotions in myself. It reminded me of some of my own experiences in life, which helped me to understand this particular era in a more profound way than I had before reading it. I had to ultimately realize that the writing style of this book was geared towards a younger audience than myself because that was my main gripe with it that it felt like she was dumbing down certain aspects of her story and also she ended a lot of chapters overly dramatically, which caused one to question how she would deal with the tragedies she was sure to face later on in the book since one is usually aware that this is about the Holocaust and those horrible events.
While I didn't totally appreciate this particular book I do find myself wanting to read her other two books that deal with her life after this period. I feel that it would be fascinating to know what happened to her once she left the camp and also when she came to America. I am sure she had a vastly different perspective than we have currently in our society, so those will be interesting to read. This book is a good lead into those two other books, since not many books about the Holocaust deal with the effects of after it.
I believe Livia Bitton-Jackson created a book that would also be good for teachers that are trying to help students learn about this time period because the book contains two separate appendixes that are timelines. The first timeline is of the events in her own individual life and the second is a timeline of the events in World War 2. Then after these timelines there is a glossary of the terms that she uses in the book. The timelines specifically feel like a great educational resource because a teacher can utilize these to show how certain events in Bitton-Jackson's life goes against what is happening in the war at that particular point. I felt that this would be a great tool for educators.

Police: Freeh likely fell asleepSeptember 04,2014
BARNARD — Former FBI Director Louis Freeh likely fell asleep at the wheel and drifted across the road before the car crash last week that severely injured him in Vermont, police said Wednesday.
Freeh was interviewed and does not remember why he crashed in Barnard on Aug. 25, Vermont State Police said. His lack of memory, the circumstances of the crash and lack of a mechanical problem means Freeh likely fell asleep, police said, while acknowledging that they may never know what happened.
Police have said drugs and alcohol weren't factors in the crash and Freeh, who lives in Wilmington, Del., will not be charged.
Freeh, 64, was airlifted to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, N.H., after the accident. The hospital Wednesday would not provide any information about his condition.
State Police Capt. Ray Keefe said police did not consider if Freeh was using a cellphone before the crash, and did not examine his phone, because the accident was not consistent with one of a distracted driver; no brake or swerve marks were left on the road.
Freeh issued a statement Friday through the office of Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., saying he was grateful for the care and support he has received since he was injured. He thanked several officials including Vice President Joe Biden and FBI Director James Comey as well as FBI agents and employees.MORE IN This Just In

Barbara Eden Net Worth: Barbara Eden is an American actress who has a net worth of $10 million dollars. Born Barbara Jean Morehead on August 23, 1931, Barbara Eden is best known for her starring role as Jeannie in the 1965-70 sitcom I Dream of Jeannie, also starring the late actor Larry Hagman. In the '50s and '60s, Eden appeared in several films and television shows. Her first film role was in Back from Eternity in 1956. In 1957, she starred on the television show How to Marry a Millionaire, based on the movie by the same name. She was also featured in other popular shows including I Love Lucy, Perry Mason, Gunsmoke, Route 66 and a pilot called The Barbara Eden Show, which never aired. Eight years after her success in I Dream of Jeannie, Eden played another popular role, Stella Johnson, in the movie Harper Valley PTA, based on the popular country song of the same name (made famous by singer Jeannie C. Riley). The movie was adapted into a television series, also starring Eden, as a single mom raising her teenage daughter in the fictional town of Harper Valley, Ohio. The series aired for two seasons in 1981 and 1982. In October 1986, Eden published her autobiography, Barbara Eden: My Story, and followed that up with Jeannie Out of the Bottle, her 2011 memoir. Eden married first husband Michael Ansara in 1958 and they divorced in 1972. The couple had a son, Matthew Michael Ansara, born August 29, 1965. She married Charles Donald Fegert on September 3, 1977, and they divorced in 1983. She then married Jon Eicholtz in January 1991.
